Debiasing through experience sampling: The case of myopic loss aversion
研究通过经验抽样训练干预来减少短视损失厌恶行为，实验发现干预对全体参与者无显著效果，但对高注意力参与者有显著去偏作用。
We introduce a training intervention based on a novel tool to mitigate behavior consistent with myopic loss aversion (MLA). We present the results of a large-scale online experiment with 894 student participants. The study featured a two-step debiasing training intervention based on experience sampling and a subsequent elicitation of MLA. We found that participants in the baseline treatment exhibit behavior consistent with MLA, which was not the case for decision makers who underwent the debiasing training intervention. Nonetheless, we found no statistically significant difference-in-difference effect of the training intervention on the magnitude of MLA. However, when we focused on the more attentive participants, the magnitude of the difference-in-difference effect of the training intervention increased strongly and became statistically significant when controlling for age, gender, education, field of study, investment experience, and risk preferences.
